    Love it, this kind of simple images when done right have a magical feel to it. Well done.

    Wow...what a dreamy looking image. Brilliant detail and flight pose. The reflection adds.

    Love the mood of this shot. Actually prefer it to the last, particularly since I am not very good at shooting in muted light like this. Exposure is perfect. Comp is great.

    Love how the water and background blend together here. Bird stands out nicely against the darker grey background.

    Very pretty. Now that’s how you take a super common bird and make it interesting and beautiful. Great wing position and the dreamy mood of the shot is perfect. This is my favorite Egret shot I’ve seen in a long time.
